Probably stupid, but what about that thing in Winter Contingency. The one when you go in the building and it's on your radar, and you hear it. I think it's a Skirmish actually, but I never looked on theatre to even see if you could see what it was, or if it was just in the game for effects.

Yeah thought so, oh well.

Has anyone tried looking into 343's maps? If in fact this is a 343 thing, then wouldn't it be about something hidden in their maps, if it is a map based thing. SO far after searching through condemned there are a total of 6 screens displaying "OFFLINE" with a blue background, also littered around the map are screens with a list of numbers from one to six all with a blue colored background. On the map their are also doors which seem to be closed with small areas beyond which look like something people would glitch into in Halo 3. I started with Condemned because that's where the notorious IGN pic is taken.

On Highlands their are many of these Offline Terminals as well as a few with that are screens attached to switches One of the buildings has closed of doorways, and across from it is the chain link fence closed of area which has 9 switches, probably a detail for controlling the hydro-electric plant (or at least that's what I think it is) so far I haven't found anything or relevance.

I think people should also try to find ways of getting the BOB medals for Exodus and New Alexandria, because it is said in one of the Evil Otto messages that 343 has ways to track that.

I kept trying to get the BOB on LNOS out, but I couldn't. Legendary, got checkpoint, stayed behind, he never came. I've gotten him before though, just never killed him.

  • 07.09.2011 9:17 PM PDT

alright i will probably regret this but here goes - everyone started out looking in countdown and lnos, to no avail. then people want to dispute this by saying that lnos or countdown have nothing to do with it. i have seen reference to look on the map pack maps atleast 50 times. well here goes..... did anyone happen to look at tender loins game history? 2 custom games on anchor 9. if i am not mistaken, and i know i am not, this is one of the map pack maps. why would you play 2 custom games on a map that you designed if you and your friends are only going to use the gamer tag for one purpose and that is bungie day

  • 07.09.2011 9:19 PM PDT

I was looking on Unearthed and outside of the map, there is an area that says "Out of bounds . . ." instead of "OUT OF BOUNDS". Also, the "Out of bounds . . ." area does not have a "Return to Battlefield" countdown. Does this mean anything? I thought maybe a skull is hidden on the map. Also, there are signs with a picture of a construction worker that somewhat reminds me of the BOB helmet, and each one says GRD below them. But I found one that had only the hat of the construction worker. It was on the left side of a closed door. On the right side there is a UNSC symbol.

I AM THE BATMAN

I posted this in the other topic, and I'm sure this has probably been mentioned before, but has anyone thought it might have something to do with Anniversary? Like, find all the hidden terminals they said they were putting in?

You can basically jump off of the cliff, and use jet pack to climb down the cliff wall. Before you reach the KILL boundary, you should be able to find the area. Make sure you are next to the wall and have infinite jet pack.

Hate to break the ice guys, but you cant get it, otherwise hackers would already have it, imo.....

When did hackers last check? It's been a while. If SOOOO many people saw this helmet on live stream, then it should be SOMEWHERE in the files. Defiant map pack, maybe?

  • 07.09.2011 10:24 PM PDT

GRD M142008
GRD M01408
UNSC M0000813
8475-191
M0000817


Maybe these numbers have something to do with Campaign missions? Kill the BOBs in each of these missions? Or activate the data pads? or go into the missions in this order? Complete them in this order or something?

  • 07.09.2011 10:29 PM PDT

^ JSD A170004 or something along those lines is posted outside the launch facility on LNOS, as well.

Don't know why people keep saying "hackers" would have found it by now, you do know 99.999% of those so called "hackers" dont know jack -blam!- right? They wouldn't be able to find their arm buried underneath pieces of paper with the word "code" written on it.

Any hacker that actually knows something, that COULD actually find it doesnt give a flying crap about Halo.

Its not meant to be impossible to find an unlock, its meant to be hard, that only a select few figure out. That way its special. No body cares about it if everyone has it. Look at Hybaussa, Recon, Red/Blue flaming helmets. Maybe "dont care" is a wrong word, people want to feel special with a rare item. If everyone has it, its not rare, they do not feel special.

It is probably impossible currently, or seems like it because a major hint hasn't been released yet to give a slit nudge in the right direction. Currently its only blind shots in the dark. But if someone were to find it out an get it, that would be something. That person sure as hell wouldn't release it.

set up an infinite jetpack on firefight and go to the back cliff with the single building and get close to the cliff descend down and stay close to the cliff side. go down until you see "out of bounds..." You can move side to side but dont go any further down than that.

I still say you get it through vidmasters in anniversary. But by all means keep going at it.
